Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

5x is the quantity of milk

6x Is the quantity of water

5x+6x=550mL

11x=550mL

x=550mL/11 = 50mL

the Quantity of water = 6x = 6×50= 300mL

THEREFORE THE QUANTITY OF WATER = 300mL

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let the amount of milk be 5x

and the amount of water in it be 6x

according to question,

5x+6x = 550 ml

11x=550

x=550/11

x=50

now ,amount of milk (5x)

=5×50

250ml

and amount of water (6x)

=6×50

300ml
